This is from designer Marc Graells Ballve, and, as you may have guessed, it is some anti-theft device for scooters. Clearly, the designer gets his inspiration from nature with the armadillo as the armor can retract like that animal’s armor.

I’m sure you all remember the classic scene in Aliens where Sigourney Weaver enters the room wearing that bulky, yellow, and yet powerful Power Loader suit and heroically exclaims: “Get away from her, you b___h!” Man, did that make the Mother Alien say: “oh, s__t!” I remember reading a screenwriting book that talked about how awkward that scene would have been if that Power Loader not been given proper introduction in an earlier scene.
